Soldiers died from 'overheating' during Brecon exercise

Three army reservists who died during an exercise on the Brecon Beacons last summer died from 'over-heating,' a pre-inquest hearing has heard. Edward Maher, Lance Corporal Craig Roberts from Penrhyn Bay and Corporal James Dunsby all died last July.

Coroner's investigation into soldiers' deaths

The coroner looking into the deaths of two soldiers during a selection exercise in the Brecon Beacons will launch her own investigation. She told Brecon Coroner's court that she was covered under Article 2 of the Human Rights Act. She said the state had "a duty to protect an individual's life".
